What does H.E.R stand for?
H.E.R. Day Corporation, where
H.E.R. stands for Here Everyone Relates, is
a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization
founded June 24, 2009.
On April 21, 2008 Lois Nelson passed away
suddenly due to an
undetected heart condition called Cardiomyopathy. Lois Nelson was the
mother of Alexis Nelson, Founder & President of H.E.R. Day
Corporation. "No one
in our
family knew that my mother was ill or suffered from Cardiomyopathy not even
her. I immediately felt hopeless,
afraid, confused and overwhelmed with grief when my
mother passed away; I was
lost and very upset. I knew days after
my mom passed away
that this conference was coming." - Alexis Nelson
Developed from a vision and an
overwhelming demand H.E.R. Day was birthed from the voices of many daughters
that Alexis would meet in passing that lost their mothers also. After sharing her feelings and vision
daughters of all ages, races, and creeds agreed that this type of conference is
necessary because there is a great need for it.
H.E.R Day Annual Conference
H.E.R. Day Conference is a place
where women who are dealing with the loss of their mother can come together to
learn coping mechanisms to better live life without her mother. The goal through this process is that the
motherless daughter will gain strength, health awareness, make a connection,
and find a new hope. We recognize that friends play major roles in the lives of
many women and with that friend in mind we also have a break-out that
specifically speaks to the friend(s).
Vision
Our vision is to hold H.E.R. Day
Conference across the U.S. in every state and every year helping all daughters
who have lost their mothers.
Mission
Our mission is to provide an
atmosphere for women who have lost their mothers where they can obtain
knowledge, health awareness, make a connection of understanding and be
encouraged.
